FrictionHard

Question

Block of mass m is on an inclined plane of angle θ. The coefficient of friction between the block and the plane is μ and tan θ > μ. The block is held stationary by applying a force P parallel to the plane. The direction of force pointing up the plane is taken to be positive. As P is varied from P1 = mg(sinθ - μ cosθ) to P2 = mg (sinθ + μ cosθ), the frictional force f versus P graph will look like
         

Options

A.
B.
C.
D.

Solution

Initially the frictional force is upwards as P increases frictional force decreases.
